I don't think so. My description of the issue was wrong - I only 
bothered learning enough Python to deal with this issue. It seems the 
issue is actually in raw_input() and Python2, not the terminal: 
http://bugs.python.org/issue7768

As I understand it Python3 should deal with this type of issue more easily.

Anyway, my change works for me, hopefully it works for those having 
trouble. It could be improved but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.
